Welcome to Indigo Inklings. This is where I talk about some of my rubber stamping projects and digital graphics. My blog name comes from the fact that I love the color indigo, and I think the notion of inklings covers my introspective side as well as my love for getting inky with my projects. I hope you find something here to interest or inspire you.

AHA! moment

Even though I've been playing around quite a bit with those Sizzix movers and shapers dies, I keep trying to think of different ways to use them. This evening I didn't so much come up with a different way to use them, but rather with a different set of stamps to use with them. It was an AHA! moment for me when it occurred to me that some of my Hero Arts Quatros, you know, the ones that have been gathering dust since clear stamps and unmounteds became more popular, would be great, particularly for the four-paned window die.

I made this card using cardstock and patterned paper by Autumn Leaves. I die cut the window and stamped flowers in the spaces using Adirondack pigment ink. I added the Primas with the Robin's Nest Dew Drops at the centers, adhered with Diamond Stickles. The sentiment is by Outlines Rubber Stamps.

About Me

I'm a midwesterner who loves to read and garden. I grew up in Missouri and am still there some forty odd years later. I've been married to a wonderful guy for 22 years and am a stay-at-home Mom to two girls, who keep me on my toes while they dance on theirs. My current interests include digital photography and digital graphics, in addition to rubber stamping and card making. I also have a two year old buddy who keeps me company while I do all of this.
